Everyone thought I was crazy at my last job because I had a bug-out bag in the event of the apocalypse, but who’s crazy now, huh?? The Pentagon revealed that it actually has its own zombie apocalypse plan in case “The Walking Dead” happens because in doesn’t hurt to be prepared, right?

According to CNN, the Department of Defense has a document that details the U.S. military’s plan in the event of a zombie uprising. (Read the unclassified document designated “CONOP 8888” in full here; a spokeswoman for the U.S. Strategic Command stressed the “[training] document is not a U.S. Strategic Command plan.”)

Don’t worry, unlike in the movies and shows, the plan lays out the preferred kill method as the headshot. It also details necessary steps towards public awareness, military contingencies, reconnaissance, the environment, and civilian authority.

“The only assumed way to effectively cause casualties to the zombie ranks by tactical force is the concentration of all firepower to the head, specifically the brain,” according to the plan. “The only way to ensure a zombie is ‘dead’ is to burn the zombie corpse.”

This might sound ridiculous to some but when it comes down to it, there is no reason to not be prepared for everything. Biological weapons are a real thing and are more dangerous every day as science because more advanced.

However, As CNN reports, the document claims:

“Training examples for plans must accommodate the political fallout that occurs if the general public mistakenly believes that a fictional training scenario is actually a real plan. … Rather than risk such an outcome by teaching our augmentees using the fictional ‘Tunisia’ or ‘Nigeria’ scenarios used at (Joint Combined Warfighting School), we elected to use a completely impossible scenario that could never be mistaken as a real plan.”

Syfy is once again trying to tempt audiences with by utilizing the zombie genre. Their newest straight-to-series order is the zombie drama, “Z nation.”

The show is described as an action-horror series that depicts the epic struggle to save humanity after a zombie apocalypse. The show will debut in the fall on Syfy.

Syfy senior vp programming Chris Regina said in making the announcement Monday, said,

“Z Nation will take viewers where no zombie has gone before. [The show adds] a sense of hope to the horror of the apocalypse — our everyday heroes take the fight to the zombies. It’ll be an epic journey unlike anything you’ve seen before.”

The upcoming 13 episode series comes from Karl Schaefer, most known for his work on the series “Eureka.” Schaefer will serve as executive producer and showrunner on “Z Nation.”

Syfy described the series, which has yet to be cast, as an ensemble show that will take viewers into a fully imagined post-zombie America. The series is set three years after a mysterious zombie virus has gutted the country and follows a team of everyday heroes tasked with transporting the only known survivor of the plague from New York to California, where the last functioning viral lab waits for his blood. Although the antibodies he carries are the world’s last, best hope for a vaccine, he hides a dark secret that threatens them all. With humankind’s survival at stake, the ragtag band embarks on a journey of survival across three thousand miles of unexpected terrain.

Earth’s infatuation with zombies is hitting its high point with the topic making up some of the best movies, television series, video games, and books of the last couple years. Finally, one of the more quintessential original zombie films is getting a remake. According to Deadline, George Romero’s classic film, Day of The Dead, will be heading back to the big screen. Again.
